Video: Mark Dayton’s budget plan, in 2.5 minutes

Here’s the rundown of Gov. Mark Dayton’s major budget proposals — in his own words, in less than three minutes.

On Tuesday, Jan. 22, 2013, Dayton unveiled his budget plan, calling for higher tax rates for the wealthiest Minnesotans and lowering the sales tax but expanding it to additional goods and services to help fill a $1.1 billion state budget shortfall, provide property tax relief and increase education spending by more than $640 million over the next two years.
